If you are regular on the blog, you will know about my hair woes. I have naturally wavy and frizzy hair that needs a lot of care. Add to that, the side effects of my arthritis medication and I have had to manage hair thinning and hair fall. I spend a lot of time trying to take care of my hair. In the last couple of months I have made some changes to my hair care routine and these seem to be helping. So, I thought I would share what I have been doing.

First up, I’ve been taking the MSM + Silica supplements from PharmaNord. Bio-MSM + Silica is a combination nutritional supplement containing MSM (methyl sulphonyl methane) and Silica.  According to PharmaNord

MSM and silica are required for the formation of bone, and collagen in connective tissue (cartilage, tendons, ligaments), and for healthy skin, hair and nails. MSM and silica also help maintain the flexibility of joints and arteries.

I was interested in this supplement not only because it promotes healthy hair but also because is said to maintain the flexibility of joints. While I did not notice any difference in my joint stiffness, I did see a difference in the condition of my hair. Hair feels a little more stronger and healthier than normal. I think I am slowly moving towards healthy hair and probably in few months my hair will be much stronger. The tablets are suitable for vegetarians and vegans and you need to take 2 tablets daily.

My hair need a good quality hair mask on a regular basis and my current favourite is the Keratin Revolution Keratin Infused Deep Conditioning Masque. This is a deeply moisturising mask that my hair seems to love. The masque includes hydrolysed Keratin, Green Tea extracts, Hydrolysed Collagen and Jojoba Oil that work together to provide intense moisture and hydration while restoring the hair back to its pristine condition. I know it makes a difference because I can see the results. Blow dry and styling post the application of this mask, always gives better results as compared to without the use of the mask. I love this mask and will be looking at other hair care products from this brand.

One of my favourite brands when it comes to hair styling is Braun. I’ve been using their grooming and hair styling products for many years now. My current Braun favourite is the Braun Satin-Hair 7 SensoCare styler. This styler is one of its kind - it feels your hair and adapts the temperature for ultimate heat protection. Sounds amazing, isn't it? It is. This one is a very clever styler. It has built-in sensors in the plate that detect the moisture level of each hair strand and then automatically adjust the temperature for smoother, longer-lasting styles without the risk of heat damage. Because of my frizzy hair, I need to use styling tools to keep hair manageable and this Braun styler does the job excellently with minimal damage to hair. And because the results last longer, I do not have to use it frequently. Hair is straightened quicker than with other straighteners and appears shinier too. Easy to set up and use, light-weight and provides optimal performance. I love it and so does my hair.

Buy the Satin-Hair 7 SensoCare styler from Amazon.

One other product that I have been reaching out to a lot recently is the InstaNatural Oil Hair Treatment and Elixir. Containing Argan Oil, Coconut Oil, Grape seed Oil, Olive Oil, Jojoba Oil and Shea Butter, this Argan Oil Hair Treatment and Elixir is said to revitalise weak, limp and lifeless hair by increasing its softness, shine and manageability. It is a multi-purpose product and can be used as a ten-minute, two-hour or overnight hair repair treatment. I am using it more as a hair protection product before heat styling. I normally rub a drop or two of it between my palms and smooth it into my hair before heat styling. It not only offers protection again heat but also seems to aid in hair styling. Once every 2 weeks I give myself a good hair oil treatment with this elixir. .It is a high quality product from InstaNatural.

So those are the hair care and styling products that I am enjoying using. It is a mix of using the right products and supplementing my diet with the right products. The changes seem to be working for me.
